Sir James Harrington, Bart.

William Faithorne

National Gallery of Art

The image shows an upper-body portrait of a man facing forward. He has long, curly hair, a well-groomed mustache, and a subtle smile. The man wears a large, white lace collar over a dark garment and a white cravat around his neck. Intricate details frame the portrait, including curving lines and an emblem with a coat of arms beneath the image. The background is textured with fine dot patterns. Surrounding the image are inscriptions and decorative elements.
